Aircraft parts in a crate full of water?
If the F731 says its serviceable then pump the water out, brush the dirt off, stick it back on the shelf, jobs a good 'un.

Someone mention a crate of Spitfires ...
Andrea Neame used to live next door to us.
Prior to that the house was occupied by an ex RAF Pilot who flew Wellingtons, very nice guy.
Commanded a Fairey Battle Sqn in 1940 (!!). Also flew Stalin.
He wrote his story in "Climbing Turns". Patrick Foss.

One of the benefits of age is that you can chat to old girl friends and tell them that you fancied them something rotten when you were a kid but you knew that they didn't fancy you.
And then they stun you by saying that they fancied you rotten as well but thought that you didn't fancy them.
Funny old world.

I don't own this space under my name. I should have leased it while I still could
Come on chaps, thread drift, or did the crate drift when they pumped it out?
Sounds like the thing is still buried and only had pumps put on it.
